What is Brit Milah?
Brit Milah is the Hebrew term used to describe the religious circumcision of boys at eight days old, in accordance with Jewish law. Literally translated, it means ‘the covenant of circumcision’.
“It is a sobering fact that in the public debate [about circumcision] we observed partly antisemitic and racist undertones.”
